Questions people ask about Canonical Group

Where is Canonical Group's sub-processor list?

Canonical Group publishes the list of its own sub-processors at https://trust.canonical.com/subprocessors. We last opened that link on 13 October 2026.

Which legal entity does Canonical Group contract through?

Canonical Group Limited, registered in United Kingdom. That is the name to put in a record of processing or a sub-processor list, not the brand.

What covers a transfer of personal data to Canonical Group outside the EEA?

Adequacy decision. The European Commission has found the country's protection essentially equivalent to the EU's, so transfers need no further mechanism. Whether that is enough for a particular processing operation is a judgement for the controller.

Where is Canonical Group's trust center?

Canonical Group publishes it at https://trust.canonical.com/. A trust center, trust page or security page is the same thing under different names: the vendor's own account of how it protects data, and the place it keeps its certifications. It is Canonical Group's page, so we link to it rather than repeat what it says.
